Virginia21 JMU

Virginia21 JMU VA21 is a non-partisan group that advocates for young voters on issues such as college affordability, jobs, and a government that works for and with us.

We are the Virginia 21 representation on JMU's campus! As the first true generational advocate for young voters, we stand up for you — Virginia’s 18-26 year-olds. We've been called the “AARP of the next generation” because we provide information, direct advocacy, and coordinate political action on a non-partisan agenda focused on making college affordable, ensuring that young people have jobs, and

building a government that works. We have been able to secure more funding for higher ed and have had laws passed by lobbying our state senators. But we can do so much more with your help! As a chapter, we will be representing JMU students specifically in the organization. We send delegates to Richmond and spread awareness on campus. The more students know about the issues, the more we can make a difference in our government!

Thank you for letting us participate! We enjoyed hearing from all the candidates and learned so much!

Join VA21 in our support of the budget proposed by the VA House. This proposed budget includes an additional $44.5 million in funds to financial aid that will help more than 17,000 Virginians afford an education after high school. We're asking our elected officials to pick a side. Not the side of democrats or republicans, not the house or the senate, but we are asking both chambers and both parties to when they decide on a final budget! Share this with your representatives to make sure they know we are watching them and we want them to PRIORITIZE STUDENTS!
